Let&#8217;s look at the four main pillars of communication: Instant Messaging - Forums - Emails - Social Media Using the [&#8230;]]]></description>

Not real spaceships mind&#8230; It&#8217;s for the game Star Wars Combine , and was the request of a personal friend who also has a website. Okay but can we talk about that title first?

					<description><![CDATA[Sometime on the 31st of July, I was trying to figure out why my computer wasn&#8217;t properly recognising one of the drives that was in it, so I decided to format it to see if that helped. &#160; As it turns out, that drive had my Windows OS on it.

In any other discipline, you&#8217;re probably going to specialise your skills and knowledge to an intense degree&#8230; I mean, there are at least 4 different professions involved in building houses (Builder, Architect, Plumber, Electrician), [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Steam recently announced that they were retiring their Greenlight program and replacing it with what they call &#8220;Direct&#8221;. What follows are my thoughts on their solution and my alternative. It&#8217;s not superbly researched, it&#8217;s an opinion piece. Fair warning. For those who don&#8217;t know, Greenlight works by allowing practically anyone to submit a game concept [&#8230;]]]></description>
